1. Porphyrin-Sensitized Solar Cells with Cobalt (II/III)–Based Redox Electrolyte Exceed 12 Percent EfficiencyScience · 2011 · 5,982 citations

   The iodide/triiodide redox shuttle has limited the efficiencies accessible in dye-sensitized solar cells. Here, we report mesoscopic solar cells that incorporate a Co((II/III))tris(bipyridyl)-based redox electrolyte in conjunction with a custom synthesized donor-π-bridge-acceptor zinc porphyrin dye as sensitizer (designated YD2-o-C8). The…

2. Cesium-containing triple cation perovskite solar cells: improved stability, reproducibility and high efficiencyEnergy & Environmental Science · 2016 · 5,471 citations

   Today's best perovskite solar cells use a mixture of formamidinium and methylammonium as the monovalent cations. With the addition of inorganic cesium, the resulting triple cation perovskite compositions are thermally more stable, contain less phase impurities and are less sensitive…

3. Incorporation of rubidium cations into perovskite solar cells improves photovoltaic performanceScience · 2016 · 3,726 citations

   Improving the stability of perovskite solar cells Inorganic-organic perovskite solar cells have poor long-term stability because ultraviolet light and humidity degrade these materials. Bella et al. show that coating the cells with a water-proof fluorinated polymer that contains pigments to…

4. Engineering of Efficient Panchromatic Sensitizers for Nanocrystalline TiO 2 -Based Solar CellsJournal of the American Chemical Society · 2001 · 2,590 citations

   A new series of panchromatic ruthenium(II) sensitizers derived from carboxylated terpyridyl complexes of tris-thiocyanato Ru(II) have been developed. Black dye containing different degrees of protonation [(C(2)H(5))(3)NH][Ru(H(3)tcterpy)(NCS)(3)] 1, [(C(4)H(9))(4)N](2)[Ru(H(2)tcterpy)(NCS)(3)] 2, [(C(4)H(9))(4)N](3)[Ru(Htcterpy)(NCS)(3)] 3, and [(C(4)H(9))(4)N](4)[Ru(tcterpy)(NCS)(3)] 4 (tcterpy = 4,4',4' '-tricarboxy-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine) have…
